Protection From Insincerity
Question: How do I protect myself from ostentation and insincerity in my actions and deeds?
Answer: Sayyidina Abu Musa al Ash’ary RA narrated that one day the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said; ‘O people! Fear polytheism, for, it is more concealed than the crawling of an ant.’ Someone asked; ‘O Messenger of Allah, how do we protect ourselves when it is more concealed than the crawling of an ant.’ Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said; “Read the following:
اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّا نَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ أَنْ نُشْرِكَ بِكَ شَيْئًا نَعْلَمُهُ ، وَنَسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِمَا لَا نَعْلَمُهُ "
“O Allah! We seek refuge in you lest we associate with you anything knowingly. And we seek your forgiveness for that what we do not know.” (Ahmed)
The above Dua is to be recited three times daily.

Takbeer Tahrima Audibly
Question: A person started his Salaah, he lifted his hands for Takbeer Tahrima (the first Allahu Akbar) but did not actually utter the words Allahu Akbar, he simply said it in his mind. Is the Salaah valid?
Answer: No, the Salaah will not be valid. Takbeer Tahrima is amongst the Fara’id of Salaah. It is necessary that the utterance of the Takbeer Tahrima be audible enough for one to hear oneself. It can’t be simply said in one’s mind.
